Afraid to have sex

Advice needed

Hello!

Posting this here since it got downvoted in the HealthyHooha sub I don’t know why, getting judged I guess, so hopefully this community isn’t as critic.

I have been struggling with my vagina for some months, I think I have BV because of the symptoms but haven’t had my doctor tell it to me textually, I need lab tests, but she has prescribed metronidazole and fluconazole in the past. I’ve also been taking prebiotics, cleaning the hooha with water only, taking cranberry and hibiscus supplements. After all of this I have minor itching, enough to live life with not wanting to pull all my hair off but its still there.

I’ve also been struggling with UTIs that I guess are connected to this and last time I had sex, I had almost to no itching at all but after, it came back with a vengeance and with a UTI. So I am wondering if I can have sex now and if there is advice to not get an UTI after and for the itching and issues to not come back. I always clean after, I pee too but sometimes forget. Last time I didn’t use a condom but read that it could help as well as lubricant, but I am still scared to do it (but really want to 😂)
